shredding the balloon

Singer:hilltop hoods

like we always do about this time

ink lines for the sick rhyme inclined

it's grimy shit but naught that can't be fixed with a little bit of spitshine

big time like frankie in vegas

inspiring like ali and frazier

spit it out till we spilling out on to the street start a party up with our neighbours

i'd rather be part of your playlist

than ever be part of the a-list

harness the energy

heart of a pedigree with the scars of a sadist

i go so hard on the pavement; i go so far with my statements

that i don't know where they end and where i start it's all part of game it's

the farthest i've came since i started to play it

i spar with these artists

the heartless and brainless

we're harnessed by chains that are hard to escape and you change then they label us bastards or traitors

they're charlatans

they're haters

they start on us but they're fake as

our parliament

but don't be disheartened by them pardon their failures

if we don't forgive our enemies

we'll crawl the walls like centipedes

burn our energy like fossil fuels and fuel our own damn effigy

and we'll all burn like hennessey

so keep on then and step with me

john lennon let it be

dead the beef like abattoirs

before these scavengers tear at me

i've been waiting to come back

like where the hell is the show?

like a balloon on a thumbtack

getting ready to blow

i've been waiting to come back

like where the hell is the show?

like a balloon on a thumbtack

getting ready to blow

and it might blow up but it won't go pop

and it might blow up but it won't burst

she said she might grow old but she won't grow up

well she might

but only if i go first

she wears her heart on her sleeve like; she's wearing a patch on her shoulder

it's not a matter of whether i can catch her

more a matter of whether i can hold her

she thinks out loud she's got me; she laughs with her whole body

i think about how she got it all figured out and wonder why she'd even want me?

each night i find it's the same ole

when i crawl inside in the evening

i lie down next to an angel; fall asleep and fly with my demons

they say don't live in the past and live each day like it was your last but

i'd rather live each moment like it was my first

take it slow and sip from the glass

savour the moment

spit vicious bars then pray for opponents

sounds so serious don't it? but i'm not concerned with a thing

this is book three

tolkien

return of the king

the kings have arrived; we drink from the sky

we fall from all 'cause we think we can fly

but our wings have been tied

and the winging and lies

have me i'm wishing that i could bridge the divide

you living the life? in the blink of an eye

the shine of the bling and the rims that you ride

can all disappear so live for the rhyme

not material things your gift can provide

i've been waiting to come back

like where the hell is the show?

like a balloon on a thumbtack

we're getting ready to blow

i've been waiting to come back

like where the hell is the show?

like a balloon on a thumbtack

i'm getting ready right now i'm getting ready

since 'state of the art' we've stayed in the yard just waiting to start this shit all over

laying in bars for a day and a half

had to switch from gin to soda

and by like mid october

record was six months over

due

and i'm like dude what you expect? i'm only three months sober

coming up turning tree trunks over

running up burning divas

posers

run amok till the sun is up or till one of us # live la vidaloca

i'm going ta roll until i fold

like i got a hold of propafol

so beautiful to know you all but for now peace i'm over and out
